Sunset on the lake

Posted by James Savage, on Sep 27, 2024.

Last weekend we went boating a little later than usual, and were treated to a lovely golden hour on the water. There’s not much more to say than that, but I got some nice shots from the day and knew I wanted to share them (in all their 4K HDR glory). Enjoy!

Dog standing with two legs up on the bow of a boat, looking out at the water. A marina is in the background, and dramatic clouds are in the sky.
Chelsea, as always, sees us out of the marina.
The sun, shining through partial cloud cover above two mountain peaks.
There weren’t many clouds that day, but the ones we had made for a dramatic evening sky.
A small lakeside beach, with blue-green water and pine trees surrounding the shore.
Okay, technically this is from the next day, but I’m sneaking it in here. This is one of our favorite spots to float and watch the trees.

It was a calm day on the water, which is great for me, but we still saw some sailboats out in the middle of the lake.
Dog staring off across a lake. A small bird is barely visible among the waves. In the background is a pine tree covered hill cast in golden light.
While it may appear that Chelsea is contemplating the scenery, she actually has her sights set on far away bird among the waves.
The shoreline of a lake, dotted with trees and a few houses. A ridge of mountains are visible in the background.
Heading back home.
